Introduction
The Movement Details screen provides the capability for a user to add or consolidate Shipments to a Movement. The Movement Detail screen has a Load Builder functionality which pictorially represents the current Movement with respect to its Equipment's capacity. It also provides an easier way to build the equipment to its full capacity by suggesting possible Shipment candidates and displaying the impact to the Movement's capacity when adding additional Shipments.
Using the Load Builder Functionality
- Log in to the One Network System.
- Select Transportation -> Awaiting and locate a single–shipment Movement or multi-shipment Movement on the screen.
- Select a Movement Number hyperlink to display the associated Movement Details screen.
- The Movement Detail screen will be displayed and is divided into multiple windows with tabs:
- The window located in the upper-left part of the screen under the Header tab that contain information on the Movement along with the associated Movement Number.
- When you select Load Builder tab the window displays a pictorial representation of a truck.
- The truck contains the following information in a graphical view as compared to the Equipment's Weight/Volume/Quantity capacity.
- Movement's Weight (in green)
- Volume (in blue) and
- Quantity (in orange).
- For each bar graph, there will be three capacity numbers:
- the first one represents the Movement's value
- the second one represents the Equipment's value and
- the third represents the remaining capacity.
For example, in the screen shot below for the Weight bar graph, the Movement's weight is 1500 pounds, the Equipment's weight capacity is 2000 pounds and the remaining truck's weight capacity is 500 pounds.
- Shipments can be dragged and dropped from the right side of the screen onto the truck pictorial to update the quantities of the shipment. This helps the user to load a truck to its full capacity.
- The window located in the lower left part of the screen under the Shipments tab will display the shipment summary information for the shipments under this Movement.
- The window located on the right part of the screen will list the available shipments.
- This list of shipments contains those shipments that have the same or compatible Equipment and Service Level as the selected Movement.
- By default, this window shows those shipments whose Pickup Date Range Start is within +/- 7 days as compared to the Pickup Date Range Start of the selected Movement.
- To display shipments with an increased date range, select the "Filters (edit)" link on this window and modify the "Date Tolerance (Days)" field (Note – this field can only be modified to a maximum of 30 days).
- The shipments listed with the plus symbol are ones that are available and can be added to the Movement
- The shipments listed without the plus symbol are the ones that are already associated with this Movement.
- To add an additional shipment to the Movement:
- Select the plus symbol next to an available Shipment
- Drag and drop a Shipment onto the truck symbol under the Load Builder tab window (upper left window)
- Drag and drop the Shipment onto the Shipments tab window (lower left window).
Note: The newly added shipment is highlighted in yellow in the Shipments tab window. In the Load Builder tab window, the capacities will be updated to reflect this additional shipment added to the Movement
- The window located in the upper-left part of the screen under the Header tab that contain information on the Movement along with the associated Movement Number.
- To confirm adding this Shipment to the Movement, press the Save button. A success message will be displayed.
- The user can then return to the Awaiting screen and refresh the screen to see this new Shipment now consolidated under the Movement.
